Every year, all families at ASYV go head-to-head in soccer, basketball, and volleyball — a full bracket-style showdown to see who takes home the Champions League title. Competition was fierce this year, and we’re excited to (finally!) share the winners…

Today, July 4th, we celebrate Kwibohora — Liberation Day — marking 32 years since the end of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. From our hillside at Agahozo-Shalom, we honor Rwanda's resilience and the hope that continues to define its journey forward.

And just like that, another year has flown by! Our students packed their bags and headed home for summer vacation today.

This was an exciting year filled with dancing, learning, playing, and new experiences.

We can’t wait to see our family back in September!

To celebrate the end of their Enrichment Year, our 1st-year students hiked to Lake Mugesera for a day of boat rides, games, and bonding.

10 months ago, these students met for the 1st time. Today, they are family. We couldn’t be prouder of all they’ve accomplished in just 1 year.

For #WorldBicycleDay, our students hit the road — some for the very first time! 🚲 They also learned how traveling on 2 wheels can reduce carbon emissions and make you healthier. The event was part of our Village #EnvironmentWeek action, from community clean-ups to tree planting.

Let’s dance! Thank you to the @SherrieSilverFd for a very special Village Time. ASYV students joined with the foundation’s youth troupes for an incredible dance off!

Like ASYV, the Foundation supports youth in healing and accessing opportunity through art. #YoungArtists

[Agahozo-Shalom @asyv]

Our students work to foster healing and build skills to alleviate stress and anxiety in themselves—while supporting one another.

They offer peer-to-peer counseling through our Heal The Heart Initiative, lead wellness sessions, and attend yoga classes. #HealTheHeart #TikkunHalev

[Agahozo-Shalom @asyv]

We built ASYV together as a community—and what we built changes lives. Our newest graduates are also entering the world at an uncertain time.
